Academic and other programs

Squires Elementary has made great progress toward implementing standards-based education system through initiatives like Gifted and Talented services, English Learners services, Art, Vocal Music, Physical Education, Language Arts, Math, Computer and Technology, Special Education programs, Speech Therapy, Band, and Orchestra. 

The majority of the students live within walking distance of Squires making it possible for us to sponsor several after-school programs such as Girls on the Run, Cross Country, Cheerleading, STLP, Squires Singers, STEM club, academic team, eSports, and participation in several outside community sports related skills lessons.  Students can also serve as student council members,  flag raisers, and morning news show crew members.
